About Darby L. Hoggatt

Darby Hoggatt is the owner and managing attorney of Hoggatt Law Office, P.C., where he has spent more than 30 years fighting for injured people in northern Colorado. Since opening the firm in Fort Collins in 2002, he has built a practice centered on personal attention, aggressive advocacy, and practical results for people facing the aftermath of serious accidents and workplace injuries. Darby handles personal injury and workers’ compensation matters, including car, truck, and motorcycle accidents, wrongful death claims, and complex on-the-job injury cases. He believes every client deserves clear communication, efficient handling of their case, and a legal team that treats them like family rather than a file number.

A Wyoming native, Darby earned both his B.S. in Finance and his J.D. from the University of Wyoming before passing the Colorado and Wyoming bar exams in 1995 and the South Dakota bar exam in 1996. He began his legal career in general practice before focusing on workers’ compensation, personal injury, auto accident, and disability matters in Fort Collins in 1999. Today, he leads a carefully chosen team of attorneys and paralegals dedicated to helping clients secure strong medical care and the compensation they need to move forward. Darby is a member of the Colorado Trial Lawyers Association, the Workers' Compensation Education Association, the Colorado Bar Association, and the Larimer County Bar Association. He has been recognized as an Elite Lawyer since 2018 and has also earned honors including Lead Counsel Verified, the Martindale-Hubbell Client Champion Award – Platinum Distinction, and selection to The National Trial Lawyers Top 100.

I worked with Darby in regards to a several year worker's compensation case. He was extremely patient with me and answered every single one of my many questions. His advice and plan of action was in my best interest and I felt confident in his care of my case. Darby is professional and personable, he made me feel comfortable and at ease, and I never felt like he was just out to make himself money; he truly cared about what would be right for me. I would recommend to any of my family and friends.

I went to him due to a leg injury I had from 2014. He let me know everything that I needed to do and helped me with figuring out whatever I had troubles with. I have recommended him to friends and family and will continue to do so.

Every step of the way I was treated with utmost respect, kindness and transparency regarding my case. He took the time to call me often to inform me of any developments in the case and kept me in the know throughout the whole process. He explained the different legal jargon and made me aware of all my options. Darby is not only a knowledgeable and experienced lawyer, but a decent and kind person as well.

My husband and I had to reach out for legal support in regards to my husband's workers compensation claim. A huge weight was lifted off our shoulders after meeting with Darby and his team and we felt we were in good hands. Darby and his team are not only a blessing but are extremely knowledgeable in what they do. The team at Hoggatt Law Office continue to give excellent support.

Darby has represented my wife and I on four separate claims, two were worker's compensation claims, one was an auto accident, and one was a social security disability claim. Darby was successful on all four claims. He is very compassionate. He is attentive. He explains the law in a way that we can understand. His staff is very competent and attentive as well. He has a small firm that is very customer service oriented verses some of these larger firms where you feel like you're just a #.
